An integral experiment on graphite assemblies with an empty channel

Description

Results of a benchmark experiment made in graphite assemblies with a homogeneous and an empty channel are discussed. Experimental values are compared with calculational ones with the help of a new technique developed for calculation of heterogeneous systems. The analysis of the results of comparison of calculational and experimental values showed that they agreed well at the level of ∼ 10%. Some discrepancy obtained with 64Zn(n,2n) reaction is likely to be accounted for by exceeding its cross section in files based on ENDF/B-VI data library
